#2 Dumb Bitch of the Year 2013: Justine Sacco.

#2 Dumb Bitch of the Year 2013: Justine Sacco. With just a few weeks left in 2013, communications executive Justine Sacco almost didn't make our list of the year's biggest assholes, but one insanely offensive tweet took care of all that. ...Sacco tweeted a rather racist AIDS joke just before jetting off on holiday in South Africa. While she was in the air for 11.5 hours without WiFi access, her tweet went viral, she lost her job and thousands gathered around the glow of their laptop screens, waiting for Sacco to land and learn her fate.#DumbBitchofTheYear2...

Seller pulls website after racist anti-Obama sticker goes viral

  This year's presidential race is already one of the most ugly and nasty in recent history. But a photo of a racist anti-Obama bumper sticker that has gone viral across social media, ranks as one of the lowest of many low moments. The sticker reads "Don't Re-Nig in 2012" in large white script, with "Stop Repeat Offenders.  Don't reelect Obama!" in smaller script below. The sticker originated from a site called Stumpy's Stickers, which has since shut down and which also sold several other racist and anti-Obama-themed stickers, including one with hooded Ku Klux Klan figures bearing the phrase "The Original Boyz N The Hood."   View Original article here.  RACIST...

Pimpin’ Ain’t Easy… Unless You Have An Android Phone With Pattern Lock

By Vincent Messina (1:58 pm PDT, Mar 14)  When we think about security for our mobile devices, we’re usually protecting it from nefarious individuals. Well guess what? It apparently works both ways. In a story straight out of James Brown’s diary, the FBI is having a hard time busting a notorious San Diego pimp thanks to Android’s pattern lock feature. After numerous arrests and jail time, Dante Dears — founder and head of “Pimpin’ Hoes Daily” (I’m not making this up) — found himself out on parole, shackled with a GPS monitor, and ordered to stay off the streets. He of course learned his lesson and  gave up  found craftier ways to run his hoe empire. Giving orders and setting up tricks via a Samsung...

Bush league pimp's Android password stumps FBI

Paroled pimp Dante Dears thought he was being clever when he used his smartphone to run his business, (called Pimpin' Hoes Daily, and yes, we're being serious), while he was under house arrest but ... well, actually he was.  Gizmodo says that even though the FBI discovered his Android-powered "pimpire" and confiscated his Samsung, they've been completely baffled by the pattern lock he used to secure his data.  After a regional computer forensics lab was "shut out permanently for excessive login failures", the Feds filed a warrant telling Google to turn over Dears' address book, text messages, search history and, oh yeah, the instructions so they can bypass that pattern lock.

Woman drinks her urine on aptly titled 'Strange Addiction'

Meet Carrie, a 53-year-old woman who loves to drink her own urine. Carrie says, "I like warm pee. It's comforting. The first time I drank my urine, I didn't throw up and it wasn't horrible. So I thought, 'You know what? I can do this.'" Kind of like how they figured out they COULD re-create dinosaurs in "Jurassic Park," but they never questioned if they SHOULD.  Also questionable: her habit of using urine to bathe and brush her teeth. Her daughter Cassie is concerned all this pee-guzzling could harm more than her mother's breath and credibility, though the practice drinking your own pee (urophagia) has its loyal adherents. Carrie will drink her urine on camera and muse about its subtle palette on TLC's "Strange...

Should district be allowed to demand middle-schooler's Facebook password?

Up against the Wall! Should district be allowed to demand middle-schooler's Facebook password? By Bob Sullivan A 12-year-old Minnesota girl was reduced to tears while school officials and a police officer rummaged through her private Facebook postings after forcing her to surrender her password, an ACLU lawsuit alleges. The claims are the latest in a string of tales showing that even password-protected, private online activities might not be safe from curious government agencies and schools. (See last week’s story). The girl, whose identity is withheld in the lawsuit, came home "crying, depressed, angry, scared and embarrassed" after she was intimidated into divulging her login information by a school counselor and a deputy sheriff,...
